Welcome to Following the Whispers blog

Thank you so much for taking the time to visit. Hope you enjoy your stay. I blog here on Monday and Tuesday. This blog was created at the time my memoir came out, in February, 2009. Its motto was: creating a life of inner peace and self-acceptance from the depths of despair.

"ONLY ONE THING IS MORE FRIGHTENING THAN SPEAKING YOUR TRUTH, AND THAT IS NOT SPEAKING IT." Naomi Wolf

"We are called human beings, not human doings."
Wes Nisker, Buddhist teacher

"The way to do is to be."

My very first award

Helen Ginger was kind enough to honor me with a Humane Award--my first ever award. Here is what it means:

The Humane Award is to honor certain bloggers that I feel are kindhearted individuals. They regularly take part in my blog and always leave the sweetest comments. If it wasn't for them, my site would just be an ordinary blog. Their blogs are also amazing and are tastefully done on a regular basis. I thank them and look forward to our growing friendships through the blog world.

I am now passing the Human award to:

Blessings,

Karen

Kudos to you, Karen, for receiving this Award. It is much deserved here for your thoughts and insights! And I gladly accept your passing it along to my blog, very touched that you thought of me!

Hi Karen. One of the benefits of passing on an award is that I get to visit some new-to-me blogs. I'm popping off to your choices now.

Kudos, well deserved, and a good list of bloggers to pass it on to as well. :) Diane Wolfe gave me that one a few days ago, I've got to do an acceptance post, probably tomorrow.

Where's the graphic, Karen?
